Gloves, trash bags, and trash grabbers will be available to use, and the City of Coralville will dispose of all waste that is collected. Volunteers younger than 18 must be accompanied by a supervising adult.
Events will be cancelled 24 to 48 hours in advance if the weather does not look favorable, and any changes will be posted at www.coralville.org. For more information or to sign up, please contact Virginia Hayes, Stormwater Technician, at 319.248.1738 or vhayes@coralville.org.
You can help make our neighborhoods, parks, and trails a little cleaner, and keep our local waterways and environment safer from contamination!
